OPINION BY BILL COLLIER- Fox News reports a widely known fact: when it comes to the protests in Cuba, Democrats aren’t silent just because they don’t know what to say. Their brand of woke communism may differ from Cuba’s state communism, but the desire Fidel Castro and his mafia-like Party had for total monopoly power seems to have captured the very soul of the Democratic Party, a party base of totalitarian loons whose respect for this country, and the Bill of Rights especially, is extremely low.
Sanders whitewashed the “authoritarianism” he pretended to oppose, according to this quote:
“We’re very very opposed to the authoritarian nature of Cuba but you know, it’s unfair to simply say everything is bad,” Sanders explained. “You know? When Fidel Castro came into office, you know what he did? He had a massive literacy program. Is that a bad thing? Even though Fidel Castro did it?”
The old “Mussolini made the trains run on time” bit.
But it wasn’t just Sanders who Fox got no statement from on Cuba, see this:
Fox News also reached out to the White House for comment. Press Secretary Jen Psaki referred Fox News to the National Security Council, which then referred to Psaki’s comments on Cuba during an interview with MSNBC. Psaki addressed the lack of fundamental resources in Cuba during that interview.
Fox News has also reached out to State Department spokesman Ned Price but has not heard back.
Jake Sullivan, the White House national security adviser, took to Twitter to say the “U.S. supports freedom of expression and assembly across Cuba, and would strongly condemn any violence or targeting of peaceful protesters who are exercising their universal rights.”
All in all, Democrats likely hope the Cuban regime shuts this down quick before people in this country get the “wrong” idea that any form of communism, even the woke communist parternship between corporate monopolies and the state all under the aegis of the Democratic Party, are bad.
But while Democrats in US cities riot, loot, burn, and murder their way into power, Democrats also condemn any “violence” by protestors against a brutal, violent regime.
That’s it. “We are OK with some protesting, but let’s not get too rowdy as the police beat and brutalize you!”
Totalitarianism is the first insctinct and true love of the Democratic Party.
Meanwhile, Senator Rubio ripped Biden in a Washington Times report for not being a strong advocate for freedom, perhaps because he doesn’t realize that for Biden et al, the fall of the Cuban regime might put the spotlight on their own woke communism.
“The people of #Cuba bravely take to the streets against 62 years of socialist tyranny. 12 hours later President @joebiden @POTUS has yet to say a word about it,” Rubio wrote.
The President isn’t concerned about social justice or equity or any of the buzzwords his handlers tell him to use. He represents a narrow interest, a party base, who see in Castro, Mao, and Stalin role models to follow, not dictatorships that should be overthrown.
Back in March, the woke communist Party (Democrats) urged President Biden to back a return to the rapprochement with Cuba under Castro fanboy, President Obama. The Democrats want for Cuba what they wanted for China, favorable trade deals that may hurt the US but enrich the communist regime. Democrats are by and large woke communists and internationalists who want a “global regimen” for “climate change” and other bogeymen.
Their interests, and the reason why they seek to deconstruct US History through extreme and disproportionate exaggeration of our flaws and mistakes, is precisely because they envision a world under a global structure managed by woke communist types in corporations and governments working together.
The bottom line is, the Democratic Party does not want the Cuban regime to fall.
